UGNX: Basic Drafting
Graphical Communication
UGNX: Basic Drafting
Note: This is NOT a course in drafting, however, engineers need to be “graphically literate”; i.e., you need to be able to read and write engineering drawings.
UGNX: Basic Drafting
Today’s Objective: - Learn basic process of converting a UG
solid model into an Engineering Drawing
UGNX: Basic Drafting
Today’s Subjects: - Creating Base Views- Adding Views- Setting View Properties- Place Dimensions- Adding Notes (annotation)
UGNX: Basic DraftingThe Drafting application lets you create drawings
with views of the part, dimensions, and necessary drafting annotations.
This application supports the drafting of engineering models in accordance with ANSI and ISO standards.
To Create a Drawing
1. Create part in modeling application
2. Switch to drafting application
3. Insert Sheet form select:
• Paper size• Scale• Units
To Create a Drawing
4. Add Base View• Insert > View >
Base View• Icon on sidebar• MB3 on drawing
border > Add Base View
• Part Nav MB3 on drawing sheet > Add Base View
To Create a Drawing
5. Choose View Options
• Style (hidden lines)
• View (front/iso)• Scale
6. Place Base View
7. Add Projected Views
8. To get an isometric, Add Base View
Short Demo …
As a Team
• Open an existing model file• Create an engineering drawing including
top, front, right side and isometric views– Add base view (top or front)– Add projected views– Add base view (isometric)
Adding Dimensions
• For many dimensions, just use the Inferred dimension tool
• To be more specific, pick the tool that best selects your part geometry
• Dimensions are fully associated to solid, i.e. if you change the model (in modeling) dimensions (in drafting) automatically update
As a Team
• Add several key dimensions to your views• Switch to modeling application and modify
one of the key dimensions• Return to drafting application, verify your
drawing changes, may need to update view (MB3 in view, select update)
Adding Notes (Annotation)
• Select Annotation Editor – Insert > Annotation – Icon
• Enter Text in Edit Window
• Place Text
As a Team
• Add Annotation to drawing– Names– Section #– Team #
As a Team, To be Turned In
• Create part #6• Create an engineering drawing (top, front,
right-side, isometric views)• Add Dimensions to drawing• Add Annotation to drawing
– Names– Section #– Team #
Next Time
• No class tomorrow• Sketching – Bring Lab Manuals
